Abstract: | A novel microcalorimeter based on a miniature liquid-in-glass thermometer is described. Heat is transduced into an optical,
rather than electrical, signal, facilitating a future array format. The instrument performs batch analysis (drop mixing) with
a 2 μL sample volume. Energy changes of 4 μJ produced by a dilution of sulfuric acid are resolvable. The effect of evaporation,
and measures taken to limit it, are discussed. |
